Guitarist Leslie West comes storming back on the scene this fall with a new release that finds the Mountain founding member trading licks with ZZ Top veteran Billy Gibbons, Slash, Zakk Wylde, Joe Bonamassa and Steve Lukather of Toto.  Having that many top-notch players at his side during the project clearly got West reved up... 'These guys don't just show up and play on everybody's albums.  They're all stars in their own right, and fantastic players'.  Unusual Suspects, the 12 track disc due Sept. 19, includes straight-up Rockers, some up-tempo blues and a couple of ballads.  The release will be the first from West in five years.
